“Q. I have a Boost Incognito, Mirro, Rant, Bali, Juno, Seek, Rambler, Factor or KRZR or some other Boost phone that’s not a iDen phone. Can I get the games and apps on BoostApps.com on my phone?”

Thank you so much for your help Dennis! I managed to download Opera (and other apps) real easy on the Innuendo; however, I just returned the phone. See, I live in the northern part of Mexico and this (cdma) phone do not recieve any signal at all here. On the other hand, the iden phone I had before would perfectly work here…

Boost Mobile customers. The end has come to Boost Mobile and IDEN. Sprint has made their decision and IDEN is GONE on Boost Mobile. You will eventually have to move to the “Dark Side of the Boost Force” and get a CDMA, Android or BlackBerry phone. I have been an IDEN phone user from Nextel to Boost and up to the end. I finally had to break down and get an Andorid. All of you Boost Mobile IDEN Jedi’s will join us Android Sith or perish in the rehlm of a new carrier. A strong Boost Mobile Sith I have become. Henceforth, I shall be known from this day forth as “Darth Hater” And all IDEN Jedi are my enemy!

I have i856 and my Opera 5 stopped working (it says unable to connect) then I tried to download another browser and I found out that the “download apps” icon doesn’t work anymore (it says system failed or something like that). Is this due to the fact that iden system is shutting down? Should I get a non-iden phone now? Thanks!

That is quite possible and highly probable. The IDEN system is shutting down and Sprint may already be shutting down certain IDEN related services. You will eventually need to get a CDMA phone, now is the time to start looking.

I Have a motorola theory and cant figure out how to download games to it, i tried going to games and then get new but there is nothing there it when it opens the browser and loads it brings up a boost mobile page and then says “Sorry, there are no results found” any help would be apreciatedcx

Open your phone’s browser
Press the left soft key (labeled “options”)
Choose “Go to URL”
Enter boostapps.com
Press the right softkey (labeled “OK”)
Click a game you want to download and press OK
On the next page scroll down to the “JAD” link and preess OK, the game should install.

It’s hard to say what’s going wrong but here are is the process for downloading an app on a Boost CDMA phone like the Rumor Reflex.
1. Go to http://boostapps.com with the phone’s built in browser
2. Find a game or app you want and click on the app title to open its detail page
3. Scroll down to the JAD link near the bottom of the post (NOT the Send to Phone Button, below it)
4. Phone will tell you the app is Untrusted and ask if you want to continue anyway. Choose Yes.
5 Download will start, progress bar will be displayed.
6.Download will either complete or else and error message will be displayed and the download will be aborted.
7. If there was no error, phone will tell you which folder (Applicatons or Games) the app is stored in and ask you if you want to launch it. Press Launch to run it
8. The next time you want to run the app, tap Menu, then My Stuff and then the Games or Applications folder and the app will be listed at the bottom of the page (might have to scroll down), Most apps, including games, end up in the Applications folder, If you can’t find your app check both Games and Applications and be sure to scroll all the way to the bottom of each list.

Try doing the above steps and let us know if it works, and if it doesn’t, where the process fails or halts and any error messages displayed. Also which app(s) you have tried.
